== Welcome ==
'''Welcome!'''

Hello, and ] to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for ], such as the one you made to ]. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages you might like to see:

* ]
* ]
* ]
* ] and ]
* ] (using the ] if you wish)
* ]

You are welcome to continue editing without ], but many editors recommend that you '''<span class="plainlinks"></span>'''. Doing so is free, requires no personal information, and provides several benefits such as the ability to create articles. For a full outline and explanation of the benefits that come with creating an account, please see ]. If you edit without a username, your ] (69.181.251.214) is used to identify you instead.

In any case, I hope you enjoy editing here and being a ]! Please ] on talk pages using four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>); this will automatically produce your IP address (or username if you're logged in) and the date. If you need help, check out ], ask me on ], or ask your question and then place <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>]<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> before the question on this page. Again, welcome! <!-- Template:welcome-anon -->

== How do we source things like Farmville? ==

I mean, I have a winged unicorn myself, I can take a screenshot, is that valid? ] (]) 00:54, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

:No. See ] for guidelines on reliable sources. ] (]) 00:55, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

== Clickradio launch party ==

Here's a link to the pictures of the Clickradio launch party: . Mr. McMullen is ''the'' high-society photographer in New York and it's likely that he charged over $100,000 for that night. The party cost, in total, close to $2 million and that was exposed in the suit involving Hank Williams in the mid-2000s.

I'm guessing you're Hank and you already know this, though. No one else cares about Clickradio except for Hank and for the people who got burned when that ship went down. ] (]) 01:47, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

:Paranoid much? I couldn't care less about Clickradio, but I do care about having well referenced articles. You should try it. ] (]) 01:55, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

== Removing AFD template ==

<del>] Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Please do not remove ] from articles, or remove other people's comments in ], as you did with ]. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create ]. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please ] at the respective page instead. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-afd1 --> ]&nbsp;''']]''' 09:19, 26 October 2011 (UTC)</del>

== Nominating articles for deletion ==

Hi. Thanks for nominating ] for deletion; this has now been done. Just a reminder, can you please post a note on the creating editor's talk page notifying them that the article has been nominated for deletion? This is a courtesy, which gives them the opportunity to make improvements. If you look at the bottom of all deletion notices, there is generated text that can be copied and pasted onto the editor's talk page. Thank you.

== English ==

I'm a ] and I'm trying to make ] more readable to its users who are not native English speakers.
As you know, the ] provides many information which has not yet been covered in ].
I think redirects from other languages to English help Misplaced Pages readers a lot. ] (]) 09:39, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

== Arkham City ==

Rather than engage in an edit war over the ''Batman: Arkham City'' articles, let us come to a compromise regarding how much information should be posted. I will make myself very clear: Simply because a character has what you call a "minor" appearance is no reason to strip the entire section down to one sentence (see below). That sort of work simply isn't going to wash. Therefore, what I propose is this: characters will only appear in side missions should be allowed at least three sentences of description. Cameo appearances should be allowed one sentence in addition to the standard ".... makes a cameo". As for the Penguin article, all this gameplay garbage about "on Level 3 he did this and that" for the Cobblepot Caper should be removed and some simpler backstory put in its place. Regarding the character's specific Arkham City section, I propose it contain only as many sentences as is featured on the Two-Face article, which is still more data than the bare-bones version you keep supporting. Is this acceptable?

Thank you for your time,

:This is a discussion that should take place at the Comics Project, not on any one article or editor's talk page. But in general, no, I don't agree with your proposal. How much space to be allocated should be balanced based on the overall length and size of the article. A huge, sprawling Video games section that almost equals the length of a 70 year comic book history, to use your phrasology, simply isn't going to wash. A minor appearance in one game should get minimal coverage in the character's article. Anything else deemed worthy of inclusion should be limited to the article on the game itself. ] (]) 19:55, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

::I concede several notable points and have removed most of my add-ons, but your attempt to shift this debate to the Comics Project, in my opinion, is an attempt to simply shift it away from yourself. You cannot simply "claim" one page on Misplaced Pages and undo any edits which you deem is unacceptable from it every single time. If you wish to make one exceptional argument for the Penguin page, please do not attempt to take it up with another article that may have a varying level of detail. To keep reinstating a poorly-written, gameplay-based type text from the Cobblepot Caper in particular while continually using "It's too much like a game guide" argument for your own reverts of another's edits is, in my opinion, especially hypocritical.

::Thank You, --] (]) 21:04, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

:::No, I prefer that a larger array of people be given the opportunity to weigh in on the issue. You know, consensus, one of the bedrock principles of this site? ] (]) 21:32, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

==Usage of "Only Warning" Tag==

Hello. I noticed your warning to ]. While his edit was obviously blatant vandalism, I don't think it is bad enough for an "Only Warning" tag. That tag should be used judiciously; the most common criteria used, I've found, are for edits to BLP articles that could result in a lawsuit or destruction of templates. ] (]) 03:11, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
